Grow my hair out (again)

My hair is beginning to grow longer :). I always tell people, “My hair is getting so long!” and they look at me weird and I tell them, “Well not long as in flowing! But long as in it’s definitely a lot longer than what it was before.” I can see bangs and that’s definitely an exciting thing for me! I can’t wait until my hair is a lot longer. I wonder how long it’ll be by this summer..hm. That picture is what I really want it to grow to.

I’ve been taking Phyto hair vitamins, using their product line and generally trying to be kind to my curly hair. It has rewarded my efforts by growing from shorter than ear-length (regularly dyed and heat-straightened daily) to the top of my back (never dyed (all dyed parts gradually cut out over the last two years) and straightened never).

I’m hoping for more good growth over the summer although I am petrified of sporting a curly mop in the greenhouse Austin, TX swiftly becomes during the summer months. I think we may have to temporarily relocate someplace drier (and preferably near an ocean) to prevent my annual frustrated hair-chopping.

I would love mid-back length hair again – hair I could wear out and have it actually look good. I haven’t been able to do this since I was 16.

My hair’s finally growing out to the point where I think of it as “long” again. I love it!
I had to cut it a few years ago, to short shoulder-length, because it had a giant u-shaped section slowly disappearing in the back at the bottom. (We finally figured out that I sat on a hearth too close to a fireplace, and the heat weakened it and it tore when I brushed it. Be careful of this!!!)
Anyway, it was fun for a while, but within a few months, I missed my hair and have been growing it out ever since. I love being long-haired again!

I grew up with long hair…like REALLY long hair. Past my waist. Think and wavy. The problem was when you grow up with you’re hair like that, you can’t wait for it to be different! Because of that I chopped it to chin length in the 8th grade. I kept it about there for the duration of high school, then let it grow out again, until part way though my sophomore year of college, when I cut it to my chin again-probably because college was getting harder, and I just didn’t want to keep up with it anymore. Well-it didn’t last very ling, by the time summer came around, I started missing my long longs, and I’ve been growing it out since-half way trough my senior year-and its down to the bottom of my shoulder blades again!

Since last summer, I’ve gone from a very short fauxhawk to a 2 1/2 inch pontytail! For fun I’ve started to wear ponytail pieces to have something to swing around now and then.

Still looking for some good products, so if you have any ideas for black hair, lemme know…

every single time i try to grow my hair out, i end up getting it cut for some odd reason.

Ok, i got my hair cut in May 2006. i’m the blond in the picture. I couldn’t find my pictures of me when i got my hair cut. I love short hair, but i like how pretty it is when it’s long. Now i’m contradicting myself.

Well. I still haven’t cut it yet. I can get it all up in a ponytail now. I love my hair but… I really want to cut it. Jamie likes it long and so does Chloe’. Hm. I know no one would stop me from cutting my hair but… I just have to get the nerve up you know? My hair’s so annoying.
Eventually I will cut it again. This goal will be counted as done. B/c its never going to get any longer than this. Haha

I get my hair cut 2-3 times a year, so it’s the cheap skate in me that goes for long hair!

I’ve made it to January without cutting it. Not even a trim. Yay. I have like two more months to go. Lets hope I don’t cut it before then.
I have up as a personal chalenge that if I don’t send in my postcard to PostSecret by next month then I can’t cut my hair till April. >.< Oh my. Haha.
My hair is looking so weird right now though b/c its crazy. I can put it all up in a little ponytail. :-)
My exgirlfriend likes my hair long so… I guess thats motivation to keep it longer. Oh. And my boyfriend likes it long too. (Hah. He’s an afterthought.)
